Ayoinmotion has a vibe and a passion for music that is true to his name. The Afrobeats artist, who puts on a live perfromance that dares you to stay still, brought his music and energy to the 25th ESSENCE Festival.
"I got to ESSENCE Fest through a lot of work. And hard work pays," he said. "As an artist sometimes you work in your own space. and you feel like 'no one's hearing me, no one's hearing me.' Trust me people are listening."
So what can you expect from an Ayoinmotion set? "It's a vibe," he says, describing his mission to get everyone on their feet and moving with each performance.
"My sound is super, super energentic," he added. "I want you to dance. I want you to figure out tomorrow morning, you may not even need to go to the gym because you've worked out so much."
